What was once a lovely old property has fallen in to neglect. There are some definite highlights from our stay - Dimitri at the front was wonderful, helpful, incredibly kind & friendly. The tour of the wine cellar was interesting; the large pool was gorgeous although the other pool was dirty & gardens unkempt. There was never any staff at the pool.
The rooms were very spacious & elegant however had not been updated in quite some time, they smelled musty and my husband sneezed every time he walked in. The "jacuzzi" bath was a deathtrap, a gorgeous marble top around it made it impossible to get in / out of without straddling it & hoping not to slip. There was grouting missing, & the plug was impossible to put in the bath as it had so much limescale; same with the shower head. There was the renmants of a wasp nest on the shutter, I tried to open them so we could get some fresh air. The towels were thin & small. Breakfast was awful.
We arrived the night of the Junkanoo, and as we came home at 1:30am, there was a very drunken woman having a very loud conversation with her friend in the courtyard; I also had to go outside to ask the gentleman getting ready on the patio to stop yelling to his friends, there was also another guest who loudly spoke to his phone in the sitting areas / dining rooms. We had to walk through the parking lot to get to our room as the gardens were closed and there was construction, which felt weird. Overall not what you'd expect for $500 night.
